Sadness

Today my Nephew is not doing well, at all. In addition that puts my younger brother in deep sadness.
JR has fought spinal cancer for about 8 years, He has been paralyzed for 2 of those years.
He is only early 40's. So young, So Sick.
Today all he wants to do is sleep. He is on high doses of morphine.
I can only pray my brothers heart does not break any more than it has already.
Recall, A few years ago, his Youngest son was killed by a STUPID hunter.
As we talked he said, "I am sitting right here in my kitchen looking at my Son's Headstone, I cant do that again."
Roy donated land to the church and has rights to interment on the property. Therefore he has put one son on the corner of his property so he can watch over him.
Literal stupidity is the reason  people die in  hunting accidents.
I do NOT like guns.
So I ask for each of you to pray for this situation.
 We hear God knows and sees all, but does he see the suffering of my loved ones?
It is OK to ask that!!!!
Is it OK to ask that??????
Does he want Roy to say, "OK Son you can go from my arms into the arms of God?"
Roy told me "I just can't say, " it is OK for you to go, I can't I can't."
Well I  think I would have a hard time too, I am not sure I could do it.
However I told him, "Roy, JR is not living he is existing, He would not want this, and if it were you, Would you want to live like that?"
Of course the answer is NO, and I knew that, words are easy to say, Hard to live by.
Prayer is much needed for this family.
I only wish I were there to comfort them but that is an impossibility. Or is it?
I am there in spirit and Love and Roy knows that.

Count your Blessings, I am right now, Thankful for Healthy adult Children.
